Will Patrick Thornhart return to OLTL to whisk away Marty Saybrooke?

© JPI Studios
There is a very interesting item out today from Soap Opera Digest that alludes to the possibility of the character of Patrick Thornhart returning to Llanview to help the exiting Marty Saybrooke off the One Life to Live canvas! Apparently, a casting call has been issued for a day player to portray a “Thorsten Kaye Body Double” with “long hair.”
So, will fans finally get to see two-time Daytime Emmy winner, Susan Haskell (Marty) be with her one-true love Patrick, played by her real-life hubby, Thorsten Kaye (Ex-Patrick)? Or, is this “double” just some fantasy figure, if Marty were to descend into total madness once the truth comes out that she switched Natalie’s paternity test, and Liam is actually John’s?
How would you like to see Susan Haskell’s stay in Llanview come to its conclusion? Let us know!

Lucas Adams and Tamara Braun Written Out of The Young and the Restless

It looks like the current run of Lucas Adams (Noah) and Tamara Braun (Sienna) on The Young and the Restless is coming to an end, after the Monday, August 3 edition of the CBS daytime drama revealed that Noah and Sienna are leaving Genoa City and heading back to Los Angeles.
In the storyline, Noah informed his mother, Sharon (Sharon Case) and half-sister Mariah (Camryn Grimes) that he and Sienna made the decision to move back to the West Coast to put distance between themselves and Matt Clark (Roger Howarth). Although Noah did not say it was a permanent move, he did assure his mom that once Matt is hopefully gone from Genoa City they could return.
However, as previewed already on the video teaser for this week’s episodes of Y&R (see below), it appears Noah left Genoa City’s The Shadow Room to be run by a returning Danny Romalotti (Michael Damian). So with that, coupled with today’s episode, it would appear the move could wind up being more permanent.

COMINGS AND GOINGS
Adams made his Y&R debut on November 4, 2025 as the successor to Rory Gibson who last played Noah on-screen in April of 2023. Earlier in 2025, Gibson took over the role of Michael Corinthos on Genera Hospital replacing Chad Duell, who stepped away from the part after 15 years.
Braun who played Adam’s mother on Days of Our Lives when she was Ava Vitali and he was Tripp Dalton, first appeared on Y&R back on October 14, 2025, where we soon learned she had become Noah’s lover as the new character, Sienna Bacall. It should be noted, Adams was on contract with the number #1 soap, while Braun has been on recurring status.
With Josh Griffith now exited as head writer of The Young and the Restless, and the newly announced co-head writing team of Jamey Giddens and Dan O’Connor having taken his place and starting their new tenure this week, it will be interesting to see how the duo resets the show, and if a Noah and Sienna return is in the cards for the future or not.
So, what do you think about the seeming departures of Lucas Adams and Tamara Braun from The Young and the Restless? Weigh-in via the comment section. But first, check out our recent live chat with Tamara and Lucas on the Michael Fairman Channel.

Rosie O’Donnell Says She Will Return to ‘The View’ During its Season 30

Rosie O’Donnell revealed that she plans to head back to a seat at the table of ABC’s morning talk show The View.
The announcement came during Monday’s episode of The Tangle Podcast where she shared she will participate in “in whatever way they want” her or “just as a guest” for its upcoming 30th season.
The View’s season 30 will kick-off this fall in September. O’Donnell explained, “They’re bringing back all the hosts, I think. And, you know, I’m pretty proud of that show, what it’s become and how it really speaks to the people and to politics.”

ROSIE ON HER PREVIOUS GO-ROUNDS ON THE VIEW
As fans of The View know, O’Donnell famously had two different one-year stints on the talk show in 2007 and again in 2014- 2015. She often feuded with then co-host Elizabeth Hasselbeck.
However, during her discussion with host, Kyle Ridley on The Tangle Podcast, O’Donnell also noted she often had tense moments with longtime moderator and anchor, Whoopi Goldberg.
O’Donnell also expressed, “Many, many people got the short end of the stick there. It was, you know, it was a factory where people were being churned in and out and their tenuous security, nobody got to be calm. It also was a show at the time that was run by a man. A show created by a woman, for women, about women, and the man was deciding what we should talk about. And that didn’t sit right with me, you know.”
Back in 2023, Brooke Shields had asked Rosie on her podcast, Now What? with Brooke Shields, about how she felt on her two stints at The View and all the controversy that surrounded it. Rosie at that time, stated, “I know this, it’s not the best use of my talent to get in a show where I have to argue and defend basic principles of humanity and kindness. It was not something I’d ever do again.”
You can check out the clip with Rosie and Kyle Ridley discussing her return to The View in some form for its upcoming 30th season below.
Then weigh-in: Would you be excited to see Rosie, even for a one-day or a week guest stint on the upcoming celebratory season of The View, or not so much? Let us know via the comment section.

I wish to Heaven that ABC would reverse its decision & keep Susan Haskell on the air as Marty on OLTL!
Me too ! Brian …Me too !
i wish they would just tie it all in and allow him to come back. Its almost like the show is tying up all is loose ends.
No way girlfriend!!! LOL
To tell you the truth -I’m really bummed that they let Susan go.
With Roger coming back to the show- I along with many fans I’m sure, were looking forward to scenes between them .( I’m sure he is the REAL Todd).
Feeling kinda ripped off on THAT one.
I always felt the the night he stayed with Marty and they had a long talk- just touched the surface of how he really felt about her.
I would have wanted Todd to completely fess up (under the right circumstance) that he really had loved her and how very ,very sorry he truly was for all that he had done.I love a torchered Todd -what can I say.
Oh well c’est la vie !!
But the idea of Marty going off the rails (and back to St.Anne’s) because she thinks she’s ‘seeing’ Patrick..is appealing.
But …FOR GOD’S SAKE writers DON’T leave her languishing there forever…there IS still Todd/Marty stuff to be played out -they have a history and a future via little Hope (how appropriately named -considering their past)…..And maybe a real Marty/Patrick reunion too.!!
Hello everyone. I am a 47 year old white male. I loves OLTL. To be totally honest with you all,,, I never wanted Marty (Susan Haskell) with Todd Manning. Marty needs to be put back in St. Ann’s for a long time. I would love to see Natalie & John get back together and get married. Now,,,Roxy is the love of my life, Wink, wink. Echo needs to get off the show along with Charlie. I think we all would like the old Todd to come back. What ever happen to Antiono??? He need to get back with Jessica. Also would love to see Cole get out of jail and get married to Star Manning (Kristen). Hey, I heard that OLTL is being cancled for good. Can some one Please tell me how true this is??? I pray that it is not true. Here is my email address: [email protected] – GOD I LOVE DAYTIME !!!
I would love to see Patrick come back along with Cole.This could make for some good storylines. Get rid of the Fords and bring Patrick back. Really want to see Cole back. How can they get rid of Marty and keep the Fords?
P.S. Just thinking …Send Marty to St.Anne’s,
Upon Todd’s return he finds out she is there and where-ever it is he has been all this time he knows that Patrick is in fact alive.
The only thing …act of kindness/love Todd can bestow on Marty is to give her back the man she truly loved -Patrick.
Todd will ALWAYS be Todd -dark ,messed up ,but this would be a good send off for Marty and a decent finality to the Todd/Marty saga.
GOD I LOVE DAYTIME !!!
What ya think folks ??
You should write for the show. That is a great storyline.
great idea!!! i would LOVE to see that……………..
@ David and Ethel ….oh how I would LOVE to write for the show…sign me up.
I’m just an amateur -but I have heart and passion.
I always loved RH ‘s portrayal of Todd and Susan /Marty…Todd/Starr,Todd/Tea ,Todd and Vicki.
As I’ve said -I love a torchered Todd- and I think he always will be.
He is a multi-layered character,he has to be MORE than Todd the rapist…Todd the monster.
Much would have happened to him in the last eight years that would have a dramatic effect on him.
I can’t wait to see this unfold -but yes I wish I was writing for OLTL.
TODD HAS A TWIN WITH THE OLD TODD. THIS BRINGS ME BACK TO 201 WITH COLIN AND TROY. TWIN BROTHERS AND DIFFERENT BEHAVIORS. TAKE COLIN FIRST. HE IS VIOLENT AND HE DOES HAD A SHRINE TO NORA AND KEPT HER CAPTIVE. HE DID SAVED HER LIFE FROM THE TRAIN WRECK. TROY IS A SWEET CHARMING LOVING MAN WHO ALWAYS LOVED NORA. HE ASKED A HAND IN MARRIGE. BUT LATER HE DID SOME BAD DEEDS. HE KILLED HAS LATE WIFE JOANA. HE TOOK LIDNSEY, JESSICA AND NATALIE. HE DID TOOK LINDSEY AND JEN TO A SECRET ROOM WHERE NO ONE CAN FIND THEM. I REMEMBER WHEN JESSICA AND NATALIE FOUND OUT THEY ARE TWIN SISTERS. IT WASN’T PEACHES AND CREAM AT FIRST. THEY WERE AT EACH OTHER THROATS AND FIGHTING OVER THEIR BOYFRIEND SETH.THE DIFFERENT BETWEEN NATALIE AND JESSICA. JESSICA CAN NEVER DO WRONG. NATALIE DOES SHE LIES AND SCHEMES AND BEING SELFISH. NATALIE THINKS SHE OWNS THE MEN IN HER LIFE STARTING WITH SETH, CRISTIAN AND JOHN. SHE GETS ANNOYED WHEN SHE SEE’S MARTY OR KELLY WITH JOHN. JEN WITH CRISTIAN AND JESSICA WITH SETH. SHE WENT AFTER BRODY. WHO IS NEXT WILL OR ANTIONO?
I THINK NATALIE SHOULD GO TO ST ANN’S. SHE NEEDS HELP WITH HER BEHAVIOR. SHE THINKS SHE OWNS THE MEN IN HER LIFE. SHE RUINS LIVES. JESSICA, JEN, EVAGELINE, MARTY AND KELLY. OH I ALMOST FORGOT. HER BROTHER JOEY. SHE CAN’T STAND SEEING KELLY WITH HER BROTHER. NATALIE DAMAGED THEIR FRIENDSHIP. NOW I THINK NATALIE IS GOING TO DAMAGED JESSICA’S FRIENDSHIP WITH MARTY.
I HATE SEEING SUSAN HASKELL GO SAME WITH BRAIN KERWIN. I LOVE THEM. TO BAD CHARLIE AND VIKI CAN’T WORK THINGS OUT AND FORGIVE HIM. MAYBE MARTY SHOULD HAVE STAYED IN ST ANN’S. UNTIL SHE IS READY TO MOVE WITH HER LIFE. IT IS NOT JUST ABOUT COLE AND LOSING HER BABY. SHE ALSO LOST PATRICK. MARTY GOING AFTER KELLY. I DON’T THINK JESSICA WOULD FORGIVE MARTY FOR HURTING KELLY. I BET SHE WON’T CARE WHAT HAPPENED TO NATALIE.
MAYBE ECHO SHOULD GO TO ST ANN’S FOR HELP. NOT ONLY SHE GAVE UP REX WHILE HE WAS A BABY. SHE RUINED TOW MARRIGES. CLINT AND VIKI AND NOW CHARLIE AND VIKI. I THINK ROXY IS WAY BETTER THAN ECHO. ROXY DID LIE A LITTLE AND SCHEMED. I HAVEN’T SEEN HER A WHILE. SHE HAS NO CLUE ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON WITH SHANE.

ok, let’s not lose sight of what this article is about ladies and gent…. the beautiful and talented Thorsten, hhhhhoooooootttttt
Let’s not lose sight of the true gist of this article — Mr. Kaye’s ego.
JuneBug , he stood up said no. Ego, nah..he believes in the principal of the thing.
I’d of done the same thing. It was insult to injury to Susan.
We would like to see Marty and Patrick settled down in Ireland….after highlighting their voyage from the beginning.
